c compiler??
when i want to ./configure things i get this:
error: no acceptable C compiler found in $PATH anything i can do to fix this? |
This is an odd one, try typing into a console
/bin/gcc --version also type /usr/bin/gcc --version also type $PATH and tell us what you get back. from these three commands. |
# What is the distribution
cat /etc/.product cat /etc/.issue cat /etc/issue cat /etc/issue.net sysinfo # What is the running kernel and compiler installed cat /proc/version More info, better answers.

ok.. here it is:
[root@c(my ip is private) root]# /bin/gcc --version bash: /bin/gcc: No such file or directory [root@c(my ip is private) root]# /usr/bin/gcc --version bash: /usr/bin/gcc: No such file or directory [root@c(my ip is private) root]# $PATH bash: /usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin:/root/bin: No such file or directory |
There is nothing wrong with your path, but you don't have GCC installed at all it appears, The best thing to do is download it for your distro.
If we know the distro we can tell you where you can get it from. |
distro? :)
i have redhat8 if that is of any help?... |
Use redhat-config-packages and install what you need. You probably will need kernel-sources installed as well.
Some tips: # Compiling/installing kernel modules You will need to have installed: 1. The developmental packages (compiler) 2. The kernel source code that matches your running kernel 3. The module source or install code Check out your system and look under the hood and see if you installed the stuff you need to do the job. Open an x terminal and type in this sequence of commands to see what kernel we are running and see if you have the kernel source installed: Code:
[fancy@tinwhistle fancy]$ su -Code:
[root@tinwhistle root]# cd /usr/srcIf you don't see something similiar to this (but in color), you will need to install the kernel source. NOTE: I noticed that Red Hat didn't make the symbolic link /usr/src/linux that all of the INSTALL files that I have read mentioned that I need, so I may as well make one now to save editing the files in the source code to install.So, I'll make it just now: Code:
[root@tinwhistle src]# ln -s linux-2.4.18-3 linux Next, did I install the compiler? Code:
[root@tinwhistle src]# gcc -v If you don't have those two things installed, you have to install them first off your install CD. If they are installed, download the source and happy comiling. :tisk: Make sure you carefully read the README and INSTALL files after extracting and before compiling/installing. :study: # Red Hat links Red Hat Linux Manuals Get your mp3 support here Maximum RPM rpmfind Easier software management: apt4rpm - Red Carpet Red Hat 8.0 Tips & Tricks # Red Hat 7.3 down configuration commands setup leads to several configuration tools # Red Hat 7.3 up configuration commands Configure soundcard: redhat-config-soundcard Configure X server: redhat-config-xfree86 Configure network: redhat-config-network Manage software: redhat-config-packages # Handling NTFS New Technology FileSystem (NTFS) HOWTOs Linux NTFS project |

i got
ls -alc total 12 drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 Aug 13 11:58 . drwxr-xr-x 16 root root 4096 Aug 13 11:22 .. drwxr-xr-x 4 root root 4096 Aug 13 11:58 redhat where can i get the kernel? it is that i need first right? just need help with that and ill fix the rest i think :P |
type:
uname -r This will tell you what kernel you have. so you can download the kernel source. type: gcc -v Will tell you if gcc is installed. use redhat-config-packages to install the kernel source that matchs what you got from uname -r. If nothing came up for gcc -v also install the GNU C Compiler. (usually under gcc) |
